    If you have a daughter doing any type of dance (i.e. jazz, ballet, tap) or even gymnastics, you…read morehave to check this place out!!! Especially if you don't want to invest in all brand new gear. They carry brand name items with a huge supply of previously owned shoes, leotards and dance outfits. They also sell brand new tights. My daughter just started a class at our local park district that incorporates jazz, ballet and tap this week. The instructor 'suggested' getting shoes, tights and outfits for all 3 types of dance. I knew I didn't want to buy brand new things not knowing which dance style my daughter would want to pursue after this class is over. So I searched for a dance store that sold previously worn/used dance gear. I am so glad I found this place! I emailed the store this week in one evening, not really expecting a reply. I made myself a note to call the next day. When I opened my email the next morning, I had a reply from the owner! They didn't have any store hours until 2 days later on Thursday but offered to come in that evening for us by appointment. Both owners were there (there is a dance studio upstairs). They had my daughter's sizes pulled out so we could just sit and try on right away. They were so helpful in guiding us on the right fit and making suggestions. The store is decorated very cute and has a 'fancy dressing room' (as my daughter put it). My daughter is already talking about going back to pick out her next jazz outfit!!!

    Amazing service! Was in desperate need of A Dream Duffle. Sent an email and the owner met me at the…read morestore on a SUNDAY NIGHT! They have a great selection of really high end costumes that I would recommend for solos. Excellent shoe selection. So glad I found this hidden gem in the suburbs and would recommend any hardcore dancer stop by.

If you're too cheap to go to a haunted house, take your kids to be freaked out by all the animatronics in the middle of the store while you shop for a costume.

    SKELETONS IN THE CLOSET…read more Spirit Halloween is mostly crap--we know it, they know it. Don't mind me, just airing out my grievances against this chain of seasonal décor stores. I could start by bashing Spirit for charging insane prices, but that's too obvious. Maybe I should dog them on their unforgiving return policy, or the fact that no store ever appears in the same location twice (making it impossible to find the correct spot on Yelp). There's really no point in updating the address, since 9 months from now Spirit will take over (ahem, *possess*) whatever empty business is lying around. This store was on Army Trail Rd near Best Buy/Jo Ann Fabrics, in a shopping area called Bloomingdale Court. I visited in early October, long before the store has had a chance to get trashed by unsupervised children. The big ticket items are looking uglier and uglier, like they're straight off of Wish.com. The demented clowns and shrieking zombies look unintentionally hilarious and reek of a horsesh*t build quality. I stood inside for a solid minute, staring at (what appeared to be) a werewolf-type monster, thinking "what IS this, and why does its growling sound like a broken Nutribulllet??" Many of their products often malfunction, get returned, and wind up back on the shelves. This is especially true with electronics like fog machines or the motion-activated spider, as there's no easy way to repair shoddy wiring. Over the years, I've seen scores of 'open box' discounts that I've been wise enough to avoid. DO NOT buy anything with moving parts from Spirit. A plastic 5ft poseable skeleton was a whopping $100! For that price, you can probably get a REAL skeleton (just ask the props department from the movie Poltergeist ^). The exact same item at Home Depot was only $30; Spirit, care to explain why your stuff is TRIPLE the cost of a competitor? One thing that didn't suck: a set of Ghostbusters window clings ($10) that includes a terror dog, Gozor, the ghost librarian, Ectomobile, Slimer, and the Stay Puft marshmallow man. Also a decent purchase was a ouija board doormat ($21) that was discounted 20% thanks to a mail offer. They had a lot of doormat designs--Stranger Things, Hocus Pocus, Harry Potter, Buffy, etc. The guy at checkout was cool, but his pleasant attitude couldn't mask all the junk surrounding him. Only shop here if you've got a sizeable coupon, and even then be smart about your purchase--odds are good you won't be getting a refund. * TL;DR * To say that Spirit's products are cheap Chinese knockoffs is an affront to China and an insult to cheap knockoffs. Every year in early August, these stores pop up like warts on a mutant's ass, claiming abandoned storefronts to peddle their oft-broken and overpriced wares. By 10/31, the shelves are cluttered with returns marked "15% off due to wires not working", and by November 3rd Spirit has packed up whatever garbage didn't sell and vanishes into the night. Not unlike visiting the apple orchard, dragging these guys on Yelp has become a yearly tradition. I love October, but I hate Spirit for their price gouging practices on bottom-tier merchandise. All stores are virtually the same, and all of them are equally loathsome. ^ yes, they used actual human remains in the climactic scene with JoBeth Williams' character from 1982's Poltergeist. Don't waste your time with the 2015 remake, stick with the original, and remember that at the tail end of the movie those hyper-realistic skeletons bobbing around in the pool were living, breathing people at one point...now that's freakin' scary! HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

    I rarely ever review things but my experience was so irritating I have to leave a review. Ordered…read morean adult Ghostbusters costume online for pickup the next day. I arrive for pick up and call. They tell me they cancelled my order and didn't have ny size. It was a one size fits all, but okay. Then they tell me they are sold out when I ask about other options. Okay, fair enough its the day before Halloween. The next morning I check online it shows they still have 2. Before ordering I call to ask, explaining That I had tried to purchase a costume yesterday but when I came for pick up I was told they were sold out. He took a moment to look and said they had one left, nd I asked if you they could hold it. He said there were no holds during Halloween and I could order it on line. I explained when I tried that they put my order back. He said I could order on on line but it would mess up their inventory. At this point its ridiculous, But because I'm desperate to take pictures with my one year old during a year when we haven't been able to do anything I decide to just try to run in, thankfully his grandmother could watch him. I arrive and inquire about the costume and its at the register, great! But wait! This costume is $10 more than the one on line because its for a woman ( totally not the employees fault but eff you corporate) I get to the car and pull it out to take a look, and it's a plus size costume, it should be medium. WTF. So I spend $10 more for costume that won't fit me, and that I can't return, after having to go to the store twice. Im going to wash and dry hoping it shrinks but Jesus Christ Halloween City thanks for making this whole experience suck. Fix your effing inventory, stop charging more for womans costumes, and if your manager fucks up have them use some common sense to make it right. 0 stars if I could. The girl who checked me out was very nice. The guy who I spoke on the phone with wouldn't acknowledge me.

    We booked Ms. Rachel and it was a terrible experience. I was beyond disappointed. The character…read morethat showed up barely talked she did not talk to any of the children and did not smile. She didn't say "hi" when she arrived: she looked scared to be there. She played a "game" with the kids by taking out a flamingo and telling one kid to hide it and asked me to help her talk to the children. The kids couldn't hear her because she was speaking so low. When it was time to "face paint" she stood there helpless until my sister in law asked her if she needed something and she said she didn't have warm water. But I wonder if she hadn't asked would she have attempted to try. The only time she seemed enthusiastic and talked was when she was going and it was time to ask for her money. I am truly disappointed and feel it was such a waste of money.

    We recently booked a princess appearance with Characters IO for my daughter's birthday, and while…read morethere were some positive aspects to the experience, there were also disappointments that are worth sharing for others considering this company. To start with the positives: the princess looked fantastic and looked exactly like the character she was portraying. She brought a couple of books and coloring supplies, which the kids enjoyed doing alongside her, and she danced with the girls in a circle. However, one of the reasons we booked with this company was that the initial booking emails highlighted that the princess could provide simple face painting. Unfortunately, when she arrived, she did not bring any face paint. This was especially disappointing as face painting was my daughter's top request. During the event, the princess was fairly passive and required prompting--such as being asked to join in the singing during the cake cutting--rather than taking initiative during key moments. After the party, I followed up with the company to express my disappointment and to better understand what went wrong. They responded that face painting is not guaranteed per their terms and conditions. I explained that this was not clearly communicated and asked what I should have done differently--whether I should have confirmed in advance that our specific princess could provide face painting. Despite sending seven emails and five follow-up texts, I never received a clear response or guidance on this. So while the appearance was visually impressive, the lack of clear communication and follow-through on a key feature left us frustrated. If face painting is a priority for your event, I would recommend confirming it very clearly in advance--or booking with another company that can guarantee it.
